Khabib Nurmagomedov created a lasting legacy in the world of MMA, and his influence continues through proteges like Islam Makhachev. ‘The Eagle’ maintained an impeccable record of ͏29 wins and 0 losses throughout his career, and few could match the dominance of the Dagestani fighter. This ͏accomplishment has seemingly impressed Dana White,͏ suggesting that Russian, especially Dagestani, fighters possess significant potential compared to their American co͏unte͏rpar͏ts.

In a conversation with “Games With Names,” White compared the situations of men across the world, specifically Russian men and American men. Let’s see what the UFC CEO had to say about American youth in comparison to their Russian counterparts.

In what might be one of Dana White’s only recent podcast appearances, he joined NFL star Julian Edelman on the guest chair. The discussion revolved around the highly popular showdown in UFC history, where Conor McGregor made his comeback to the ͏lightweight division to challenge the re͏igning ͏champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov.

In the middle of the conversation, the host asked White about the toughness of Khabib Nurmagomedov and the UFC CEO didn’t have enough words for the undefeated champion. “He’s a freak athlete, man, and he’s a badass dude. It’s, I always talk about, like, when we talk about the pus*ies that are in this country right now with what’s going on and everything,” said White.

He further added, “You know, we talk about, you know, Khabib’s crew could come in here and probably wipe out half this country on their own. These dudes are so tough and nasty and come from such a tough upbringing. Like, fucking men. Yeah, you talk about men. These dudes are like nasty dudes.”

White asserted that Team Nurmagomedov has fighters with the ability to jump anyone whenever they choose and to be honest, the entire credit should go to Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov as per Dana White.

The man who crafted Khabib Nurmagomedov from a normal child to an undefeated world champion is none other than his father and coach, Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov. According to Dana White, there’s hardly any coach who seems to have the same ability as him. Down in the conversation, White stated that ‘Eagle’s father is probably the most underrated coach in the UFC history.

“His dad was his trainer growing up and trained the whole camp and everything else. His dad had a vision that Khabib would be the champion and when Khabib retired, Islam would come in and be the champion. Let me tell you what you want to talk about one of the greatest coaches in the history of the sport that is never talked about, Khabib Nurmagomedov’s dad. You think about what that guy built,” said White on the same podcast.
